Daily Mirror Blind Item

Which aging actress is having to turn down parts because she is so afraid of high definition TV? She's terrified her wrinkles and liver spots will be magnified on HD.

  1. I hate to think Judy Dench is that vain, but she's this first to come to mind.

  4. I hate to say it because I love her like crazy, but couldn't it be Helen Mirren?

  5. With the HD clue, I am thinking she works mainly in tv now. I say Sally Field just throw another name out there.

  6. Aging, right? Love them both, but Mirren and Dench are older actresses.

    By aging, my guess is slightly skewed younger.

    And because it's the Daily Mirror, I'm gonna say, "All of them."

  7. I have no idea but I don't think she's the only actress over the age of 14 who is afraid of HD.

  8. No way it's Judy Dench. She embraces her aging, and she kicks ass all over everybody else, so there! :)

  9. do Judi Dench and Helen Mirren do TV? They are primarily film actresses.

  10. I don't buy this blind. Skin tone can be evened out with make-up. Wrinkles...oh well. You'll never convince me an actress turned down work because of this. If she was that vain, she would have had surgery by now.

  14. Can we get any more general than this BI? It doesn't even have to have one particular person behind it, could be true for several.

  18. Angelina Jolie.....man is she looking old lately!

  19. Ms.. I gotta agree.

    I think some of these obscure blinds are just space fillers to keep us coming back between the real BI's. This could be anyone!

  20. My guess is Emma Thompson. She is in a more sensitive age spot than the older Mirren and Dench. Just a few years ago she was playing Jane Austin heroine roles, now she is playing Dustin Hoffman romantic possibilities...

  21. I'm thinking Meryl Streep with her fair skin. Neither Dame cares about those things.

  22. All of them. Especially me.

    /you get enough, they run together & you call it "a tan".
